Bug Description

This bug occurs every time I click on "continue" on the screen "preparing to install", where I selected "install these drivers" and" download updates while installing. I have waited for about 10 minutes and Ubiquity apparently never continues to the next step.
Consequently, it is impossible for me to install Oneiric on my HP Elitebook 8560w at this point.

It might be worth noting that along side this bug, two other bugs occur:
1. #831754, occurs when opening Ubiquity.
2. #833295, occurs when opening Ubiquity.
3. This bug, in this order. Occurs when ticking both boxes on "Preparing to install" screen and clicking continue.

UPDATE: I figured out that the ticking the box "Install 3rd party software" causes this problem. Unticking it, I can continue with the installation process.
